Thanks Nabanit for your message. I would like to put forth my ideas on your magazine.

a. Lets first design section for the contents which could be Current Affair, WNSO/Bangladesh and Around, Arts-Literature, Entertainment, Health/Medicine, Environment, Global Affairs, Photo/pictures/videos, Book Review, Misc. These are just thoughts and not all section need to be in each issues. They could vary inWe issues. While designing sections, we can think of diversity in academic streams within WNSO and if we can caputure that diversity, the magazine will be a very good one. Based on the contents, we can think of generating revenue from advertisements. In academic publications, usually scitific equipment manufacturers would be interested. Similarly, private schools and training institutes can spend some money to support the publication. But we have to show them we have such and such numbers of people receiving this magazine.

b. We need some solid plan for number of printed copies and the cost of printing the publications and distribution. Advertisement can be a way to cover some of the deficient cost. But we won't be getting advertisement unless the magazine gets wide publicity and the contents are of interest to people.

c. Where are we going to make actual printing ? I guess youw will doing this phase in Bangladesh.

d. Design of cover, size and pagelay out are some other things we shuold decide first. In general following a format from any international magazine should be fine. But in Nepal, we tend to have soft cover (think) page as opposed to "Time" magazine style cover. Soft cover is costlier than think cover to print.

ya,we will decide every thing then we will go for the publication. but we have lack of account,we are bearing every expense form ourselves. so we are thinking to do a charity show, i will call a meeting then we will take decision. now onwards we will be free and we will try to collect some donation.
